Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of gas fuel engines, and in particular relates to a jet igniter, a gas jet combustion system, an engine and an ignition method. Background Art

[0002] In order to control the carbon emissions of internal combustion engines, the research on low-carbonization and zero-carbonization of internal combustion engines has received much attention. Ammonia and hydrogen are both zero-carbon emission combustion and are carbon-neutral fuels in the future. Due to the difficulty in igniting ammonia, current ammonia engines basically use ammonia partial cracking gas spark ignition technology or diesel-ignited ammonia engines. Spark-ignited ammonia cracking gas engines have problems such as slow combustion speed and low thermal efficiency, while diesel-ignited ammonia engines increase carbon and particulate emissions due to the introduction of diesel.

[0003] The inventors have discovered that in order to achieve zero carbon emissions and realize rapid combustion technology, some large internal combustion engines use pre-combustion chamber hydrogen ignition and ammonia ignition technology. A pre-combustion chamber is installed at the bottom of the cylinder head. The pre-combustion chamber uses a special cooling device. Ammonia enters the main combustion chamber, and hydrogen is sprayed in the pre-combustion chamber. The ammonia / hydrogen mixture in the pre-combustion chamber is ignited by a spark plug. The problem with this technology is that if too much hydrogen is sprayed into the pre-combustion chamber, it will cause oxygen deficiency in the internal mixture. If the amount of hydrogen sprayed is too little, the ignition performance will be reduced due to the incorporation of ammonia during the compression process. At the same time, the volume of the pre-combustion chamber cannot be made too large, the ignition energy is limited, and the effect of increasing the combustion speed of the gas is weak. In addition, medium and small internal combustion engines such as automotive engines do not have space to install a pre-combustion chamber, and the pre-combustion chamber ignition technology cannot be used.

[0046] At least one armature 1024 is provided, and the number of the armature 1024, the electromagnet 1026 and the vent hole corresponds to each other; the armature 1024 is provided at one end of the hydrogen chamber 102A close to the vent hole, and a vent hole plug is fixed on the armature 1024, and the vent hole plug can be provided as a conventional plug such as a rubber plug, and the vent hole plug cooperates with the vent hole to realize the closure of the vent hole; the armature 1024 is connected to the inner wall of one end of the hydrogen chamber 102A close to the hydrogen channel 1028 through the spring 1025.

[0047] An ignition plug 1021 is disposed at one end of the pressure chamber 102B away from the hydrogen chamber 102A. The ignition plug 1021 can be understood as a spark plug.

[0050] Embodiment 2:

[0051] like Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a gas jet combustion system, including an ammonia fuel supply device 200 and a hydrogen supply device 400; the hydrogen supply device 400 is connected to the jet igniter 102 as described in Example 1 through a hydrogen channel 1028;

[0052] Specifically, the gas jet combustion system includes the ammonia fuel supply device 200 and the hydrogen supply device 400 connected to the ammonia-hydrogen jet combustion engine 100, as well as a hydrogen transient pressure regulating device 300, an electronic control unit 500 and an ignition module 600.

[0053] The ammonia-hydrogen jet combustion engine 100 includes an engine 101, a jet igniter 102, an ignition plug 1021, a hydrogen spray hole 1022, a hydrogen chamber lower cover 1023, an armature 1024, a spring 1025, an electromagnet 1026, a hydrogen chamber upper cover 1027, a hydrogen channel 1028, a jet igniter body 1029, a hydrogen chamber 102A, a pressure chamber 102B, an ammonia nozzle 103, an exhaust pipe 104 and an intake pipe 105. Specifically, the ammonia-hydrogen jet combustion engine 100 is used to realize that ammonia enters the engine cylinder in a premixed or layered mixed manner, and hydrogen is sprayed into the ammonia / air mixture in the form of a high-pressure jet near the top dead center to form a hydrogen jet spray beam. After the hydrogen spray is completed, the hydrogen spray beam is quickly ignited. Utilizing the characteristic of its fast flame propagation speed, the flame quickly propagates along the hydrogen spray beam, forming multiple ammonia ignition flame beams in the cylinder, realizing rapid combustion of ammonia and performing work externally.

[0054] The jet igniter 102 includes an ignition plug 1021, a hydrogen spray hole 1022, a hydrogen chamber lower cover 1023, an armature 1024, a spring 1025, an electromagnet 1026, a hydrogen chamber upper cover 1027, a hydrogen channel 1028 and a jet igniter body 1029; specifically, the jet igniter 102 is used to realize the injection of high-pressure hydrogen according to a predetermined injection time, injection pressure and injection amount, and integrates an ignition function to ignite the hydrogen spray beam at an appropriate time.

[0055] The fuel injected by the ignition injector 102 is a gas with a high flame propagation speed and low ignition energy, such as hydrogen. The process of the mixture forming combustion is to first form an ammonia / air mixture in the cylinder, and then inject high-pressure hydrogen near the compression top dead center. After the hydrogen injection is completed, the formed hydrogen spray beam is quickly ignited, and the flame quickly propagates from the spray head along the spray tail to form multiple spray torches. The burning spray torches ignite the surrounding ammonia / air mixture, thereby realizing multi-region and multi-point synchronous ignition and rapid combustion of ammonia in the combustion chamber.

[0056] The ammonia fuel supply device 200 includes an ammonia pressure sensor 201, a liquid ammonia tank 202, an ammonia rail 203, an ammonia vaporizer 204, an ammonia pressure regulator 205, an ammonia pressure regulating pipe 206, an ammonia storage tank 207, an ammonia pipeline 208 and an ammonia valve 209; specifically, the ammonia fuel supply device 200 vaporizes liquid ammonia, stores a certain amount of ammonia, adjusts the pressure of ammonia, and sprays ammonia in a timely and quantitative manner according to the instructions of the electronic control unit.

[0057] The hydrogen transient pressure regulating device 300 includes a low-pressure one-way valve 301, a medium-pressure one-way valve 302 and a pressure relief control valve 303; specifically, the hydrogen transient pressure regulating device 300 is used to quickly discharge part of the hydrogen in the hydrogen rail and mix it with ammonia when the engine operating condition changes and the electronic control unit instructs the hydrogen injection rail pressure to decrease, so as to achieve a rapid change of the hydrogen injection pressure from the high rail pressure to the medium rail pressure and the low rail pressure.

[0058] The hydrogen supply device 400 includes a hydrogen common rail pipe 401, a hydrogen cylinder 402, a hydrogen pressure sensor 403, a hydrogen shut-off valve 404, a hydrogen pressure reducer 405, a hydrogen pipeline 406, a hydrogen rail pressure adjustment unit 407, a high-pressure pressure regulating valve 4071, a low-pressure pressure regulating valve 4072, a medium-pressure pressure regulating valve 4073 and a pressure regulating control valve 4074; specifically, the hydrogen supply device 400 is used to store hydrogen and reduce the pressure of hydrogen to different rail pressures to supply it to the injection igniter.

[0059] The hydrogen rail pressure adjustment unit 407 includes a high-pressure pressure regulating valve 4071, a low-pressure pressure regulating valve 4072, a medium-pressure pressure regulating valve 4073 and a pressure regulating control valve 4074; specifically, the pressure regulating control valve adjusts the pressure of the hydrogen common rail pipe 401 to the required pressure and keeps it stable according to the instruction of the electronic control unit 500.

[0060] The regulating pressure of the medium-pressure regulating valve 4073 of the pressure regulating control valve assembly is the same as the opening pressure of the medium-pressure check valve 302 of the pressure relief control valve, and the regulating pressure of the low-pressure regulating valve 4072 of the pressure regulating control valve assembly is the same as the opening pressure of the low-pressure check valve 302 of the pressure relief control valve.

[0061] The electronic control unit 500 is used to control the working process of the engine. The ignition module 600 is used to control the ignition time and ignition energy of the jet igniter 102.

[0062] The working process or principle of this embodiment is:

[0063] When the engine is working, the ammonia fuel supply device 200 uses the heat provided by the engine exhaust gas to vaporize the liquid ammonia through the ammonia vaporizer 204. The vaporized ammonia has a certain pressure and is stored in the ammonia storage tank 207. The ammonia flows from the storage tank through a pipeline into the ammonia pressure regulator 205. A pipeline of the ammonia pressure regulator 205 is connected to the intake pipe. The pressure of the ammonia pipeline after the ammonia pressure regulator 205 can be adjusted to a certain pressure difference higher than the intake pipe through the action of the pressure regulating spring to ensure the accuracy of the metering during ammonia injection and to accurately control the air-fuel ratio during engine combustion. The electronic control unit 500 controls the injection amount of ammonia according to the pre-calibrated MAP, injects ammonia into the intake pipe, and then enters the cylinder to form a mixed gas with a certain concentration.

[0064] The hydrogen supply device 400 first reduces the pressure of the hydrogen stored in the hydrogen cylinder 402 through the hydrogen pressure reducer 405 , and then adjusts the pressure of the hydrogen to a different rail pressure through the hydrogen rail pressure adjustment unit 407 and supplies the hydrogen to the hydrogen common rail pipe 401 .

[0065] The injection igniter 102 injects the hydrogen in the hydrogen common rail pipe 401 into the cylinder of the engine 101 in a high-pressure injection manner at a certain time before the top dead center according to the instruction of the electronic control unit 500 to form a hydrogen jet spray.

[0066] After the hydrogen injection is completed, the electronic control unit 500 controls the ignition plug 1021 to ignite through the ignition module 600, ignites the formed hydrogen spray beam, and the flame quickly propagates along the spray beam tail to the spray beam head to form multiple spray beam torches. The burning spray torches ignite the surrounding ammonia / air mixture to achieve multi-region and multi-point synchronous ignition and rapid combustion of ammonia in the combustion chamber.

[0067] The hydrogen rail pressure adjustment unit 407 and the hydrogen transient pressure adjustment device 300 are controlled by the electronic control unit 500 to work together to achieve rapid adjustment of the hydrogen injection rail pressure according to the working conditions of the engine during the operation of the engine. The hydrogen rail pressure adjustment unit 407 can be provided with three different rail pressures: a high pressure regulating valve 4071, a low pressure regulating valve 4072 and a medium pressure regulating valve 4073. The high pressure, low pressure and medium pressure in the high pressure regulating valve 4071, the low pressure regulating valve 4072 and the medium pressure regulating valve 4073 can be understood as three different values, and the magnitude relationship is that the high pressure is greater than the medium pressure and greater than the low pressure. When the engine is started or working at a low load, the hydrogen pipeline is connected to the L port of the pressure regulating control valve 4074, and the pressure supplied to the hydrogen common rail pipe 401 is adjusted to the low rail pressure; when the engine is working at a medium load, the electronic control unit 500 controls the electromagnet of the pressure regulating control valve 4074 to move the valve core to the left, so that the hydrogen pipeline is connected to the M port of the pressure regulating control valve 4074, and the pressure supplied to the hydrogen common rail pipe 401 is adjusted to the middle rail pressure; when the engine is working at a high load, the electronic control unit 500 controls the electromagnet of the pressure regulating control valve 4074 to move the valve core to the right, so that the hydrogen pipeline is connected to the H port of the pressure regulating control valve 4074, and the pressure supplied to the hydrogen common rail pipe 401 is adjusted to the high rail pressure. When the engine transitions from high load to medium and low load, the pressure regulating control valve 4074 controls the valve core to respectively connect the M port and the L port of the hydrogen pipeline. In order to ensure that the pressure of the hydrogen common rail pipe 401 is rapidly reduced, the electronic control unit 500 controls the valve core of the pressure relief control valve 303 to move, connect the B port and the pipeline of the medium-pressure check valve 302 or the A port and the pipeline of the low-pressure check valve 301, so that part of the hydrogen in the hydrogen common rail pipe 401 is rapidly discharged into the ammonia pipeline.

[0068] The injection igniter 102 controls the injection of hydrogen. During the ammonia intake and compression processes, hydrogen enters the hydrogen chamber 102A through the hydrogen channel 1028 and the hydrogen chamber upper cover 1027 in the injection igniter 102. At this time, the electromagnet 1026 is not energized, and the armature 1024 is pressed tightly against the hydrogen chamber lower cover 1023 under the action of the spring 1025, and the hydrogen is sealed in the hydrogen chamber 102A. When the piston reaches the vicinity of the top dead center, the electronic control unit 500 controls the electromagnet 1026 to be energized, and the armature 1024 rises under the action of the electromagnetic force to overcome the pressure of the spring, so that the hydrogen chamber 102A and the pressure chamber 102B are connected, and the high-pressure hydrogen is sprayed into the combustion chamber through the spray hole. When the electromagnet 1026 is de-energized, the armature 1024 returns to its original position under the action of the spring to stop injection.

[0069] This embodiment utilizes the characteristics of fast flame propagation speed and low ignition energy of the pilot fuel hydrogen to ignite the main fuel ammonia in multiple areas and large flame surfaces in the cylinder, thereby achieving rapid and complete combustion of the ammonia, improving the thermal efficiency of the engine, achieving zero carbon emissions and reducing other harmful emissions.
